We are presenting you material Anton Verinova(Aka zemlanin), which becomes today co-author our blog.

There are six rules of mail management that greatly simplify life. Of course, if you get a letter a week, they do not need, but when hundreds of letters, the rules fall into the drawer help.

1. Redeeming the time. Allot 20-30 minutes every few hours to check the mail, rather than in response to the first letter, you get a second and switch to it.
2. Use Gmail. Mailer from Google will help save time with keyboard shortcuts, work with labels and IMAP. Also, Gmail has a few little-known features.
3. Shortcuts in help. Use labels like "Reply to night", "Friends", "set" to start immediately after the e-mail client (or Gmail download) you can sort out the letters.
4. This is important, as it is - no. Try to convey the meaning of the letters in a pair of short, but clear lines. If you use Firefox, you can use plugins like Paste Email to paste text from a page in a letter a couple of clicks.
5. Do not be sorry. If the subject line is possible to understand whether or not to read it, delete it without thinking. If you decide that it can wait for later, because it will fall down, covered with the virtual dust. If the letter must be answered immediately, delete it immediately after reading it, or place it in the list.
